Chris O’Shea’s ‘Out of Bounds‘ is a gallery installation that allows you to see through walls by merely pointing a torch at them. Built in C++ with OpenCV and openFrameworks, it’s an elegant example of how Augmented Reality is becoming commonplace now that projectors and cameras are widely available. And with the advent of light-transmitting concrete it could serve as a useful tool for prototyping the kind of future we may one day have.
